Sure, I think that would indeed be easiest.  Can you please email me
off-list a copy of your ssh public key?  Alternatively, I could try
grabbing the one from fencepost; whichever way you prefer.

I did a debug build of Emacs on one of my servers, and will add a
minimal Gnus configuration to connect to a temporary account on my mail
server, where you would find a copy of the message.  I will send you
more details about it off-list once I've finished setting it up.

Thanks,
amin
